Genius, downfall, exile, humiliation.
Zhuo Ran summed up these keywords from her memories after transmigrating, and at least five stories about powerful heroines flashed through her mind.
Zhuo Ran was overjoyed. Was it finally her turn to say those words?
"Thirty years east of the river, thirty years west of the river. Don't look down on..."
Before she could finish, poof! Her spirit form appeared out of nowhere.
Tiny yellow claws, a fluffy, round body.
A pair of black-bean eyes blinked. It cocked its little head, opened its beak, and called out to a passerby,
"Mommy!"
Zhuo Ran curled her toes in embarrassment and grabbed the little chick by its beak.
"Be quiet!"

A rift in space-time opened. The boss stood five meters tall, surrounded by black liquid. It was impossible to approach or communicate with it. All it wanted was to kill every hunter.
Everyone fell into despair.
Then a little yellow chick came bouncing along, opened its beak, and shouted at the boss, "Mommy!"
The boss was surprised and confused, then fell into deep thought. "Oh, so I'm a mother hen."
The boss tucked in its neck and folded its wings tight (not really), then clucked its way off...
Everyone watched as Zhuo Ran filled a sack to the brim with loot from the boss's lair. Their eyes turned red with envy, and they rushed to the monster, shouting, "Mommy! Mommy!"
The boss came to its senses, flew into a rage, and sent them all flying!
"Can't beat them, so you call them Mommy? How interesting."

Ji Xizhou was betrayed by his mentor and friends, reduced from a marshal to a cripple exiled to a remote planet.
He thought he had hit rock bottom, until one day his spirit form dragged a little chick back, one of its legs injured.
Ji Xizhou: ...
The golden male lion declared with absolute conviction, "This is my own baby. We have to raise it well! Cluck cluck!"
Ji Xizhou: ...
Then he met the chick's owner.
She was exceptionally gifted, yet knew nothing about spirit forms.
He taught her... and used her, too.
Later, he kept telling himself over and over that they were just two strangers who had crossed paths, at most teacher and student. He had a blood feud to avenge, and he was bound to return to Central Star.
So... so! It was fine.
During a crisis, he left her behind in exchange for a chance to return.
*
But Ji Xizhou never imagined that it would be the worst decision of his life.
When they met again, she was surrounded by admirers, and there was no place for him by her side anymore.
All he could do was hide in the shadows and regret it endlessly.
* This man isn't the male lead. He once had a chance to compete for the top spot, but threw it away and can only crawl around in the darkness now.
* Just open your phone and listen to Ji Xizhou's meltdown.
Tips:
? The heroine grows over time, and the final form of her spirit is a secret. It won't stay a little yellow chick forever.
? The heroine is over 180 cm tall. There's little difference in the characters' body types, so don't read if that bothers you.
? The heroine is not a virgin, while the male lead is. The heroine will level up and move to new settings. If the men don't want her to forget them, they'll have to keep chasing after her.
